OCEAN    SERVICE 


.  ,       ^l*    *f*    •§■* 

The  fleet  of  this  service  includes 
the  new  steel  Steamer  "  ST.  PAUL," 
the  Steamer  "  PORTLAND,"  recently 
rebuilt,  the  Steamer  "  BERTHA  "  and 
the  Steamer  "  DORA." 

The  new  Steamer  St.  Paul,  built  by 
the  Union  Iron  Works  at  San  Francisco, 
especially  for  passenger  service  between 
San  Francisco  and  St.  Michael,  is  2500 
tons  register,  1800  horse  power,  with 
accommodations  for  260  cabin  passen- 
gers. No  expense  has  been  spared,  and 
nothing  has  been  omitted  in  the  build- 
ing of  this  Steamer  that  could  promote 


the  comfort  or  safety  of  its  passengers; 
such  as  large,  comfortable,  airy  smoking 
room,  and  luxurious  social  hall  on 
hurricane  deck;  bath  rooms,  electric 
lights,  cold  storage  for  fresh  meats  and 
vegetables,  search  lights,  steam  heaters 
etc.     All  berths  are  fore  and  aft. 

This  Company  has  always  been 
known  for  the  excellence  of  the  fare 
provided;  competent  cooks  and  stewards 
will  be  on  our  ships  as  in  previous 
years. 

All  our  Steamers  are  under  the 
command  of  masters  and  officers  who 
have  been  in  our  employ  for  many 
years,  and  are  thoroughly  conversant 
with  the  various  needs  and  requirements 
of  the  routes  to  which  they  are 
assigned. 

We    point    with  pride  to  the  fact  ! 
that   during   the  thirty  years  we  have 
navigated  the   waters   of  the  Alaskan 
coast,  we  have  never  lost  a  passenger.
